Abstract
According to Colman (1988), Harold Pinter’s play The Caretaker illustrates the inadequacy of the stable set, a solution concept of cooperative game theory proposed by von Neumann and Morgenstern (1944). We challenge this illustration by pointing out that it is at variance with Pinter scholars’ interpretation of the play. We argue that The Caretaker better illustrates the adequacy of the bargaining set, another solution concept introduced by Aumann and Maschler (1961; 1964).
